What kind friends to bring subs in for supper. It sounds like Katherine is a very busy woman/teacher who moved into a new surroundings and needs help with her automatic washing machine. I can feel the tension as she wants to be a power woman, too.

Comment from RetroStarfish
This chapter does work, although I'm starting to think Gabriel is a bit pushy and presumptive. It was good for the Katherine character to remind him that it is her house.

Katherine will eventually shape him up, in her soft way. Thank you for the kind review.

You nailed it--touching and amusing re the Gabriel interacting with dog and kids--their intensity between him and Katherine rings true--brilliant dialog throughout.

Just inching in a little closer all the time, Gabriel is making his mark. Now, I'm wondering when the disgruntled fellow teacher is going to be out of jail and make his next move. Thanks for sharing.

I never had a doubt. :-)

You're sweet.
Comment from Sanku
I loved the tiff between the boys and how Gabriel resolved it .Very natural and your style is very easy flowing .But though he heard the fighting between the boys I don't think he should have waited for one of them to open. Any way it lead to that delightful scene of the fight ..i loved how Hulk destroyed the lego castle

Thank you. I agree Gabriel should have waited, but that's not who he is. LOL
Comment from Pam (respa)
-This is a really good chapter, Barbara.
-It flowed effortlessly and was very touching.
-The opening was very good, and created
the tension that is also needed in a story.
-Your characterization of Gabriel throughout
was very good, and that is what I enjoyed.
-He helps the boys settle their difference,
is helpful and kind to Katherine.
-Slowly, a connection is developing, and
he is trying not to be overbearing, and
she is trying to be more appreciative of his help.
-One of these times, I imagine things will
progress a little more.
-I really enjoyed the story.

Comment from Sankey
This was a really lovely chapter. I hope these two are getting closer. He really is a nice gentle fellow. I was worried you had not turned up. One spag. the large sorted piles (of)clothes.

You know I tend to leave out those little words. Thank you for catching them for me. I've corrected it.
Comment from Wendy G
I am enjoying this writing. It sounds realistic, with kids fighting. When are Katharine and Gabriel going to become a couple?! it is written in a clear and easy style. Well done. Looking forward to the next.

I just met these characters and I already like them, especially coach. There is always a place for a good guy, one who is genuinely a good guy not a phony as some have the custom of being. Coach has many qualities I try to incorporate into my own personality. I am not always successful, but I do my best. I think I want to get to know these people better.
